what sort of price would it be to have air con fitted to my car?

It could of had it as an option at the factory but whoever bought it new didn't bother. I'm not too fussed about it to be honest but it would be nice to have, depending on how much it costs!

Any ideas?

And would it be a standard fit? i.e. using the original bits of the dash that BMW would have used etc?

THanks in advance

 

 

 

instead of asking members of the public mate, why don't you ask companies that do it?

some of the best aftermarket kits come from a company called diavia in basingstoke (although they may now have a different name). contact them, ask them for a local dealer, then ask them for a price.

 

It can be done, but you will be looking at £1500 to £2000 for a decent fit mate

thanks dave

foriegneRS, does it matter if i ask on here? not asking companies as I am not looking to actually get it done just yet at all, so thought I would ask on a car forum, thanks for your advice tho

 

this is a ford forum in case you hadn't noticed. how many people do you think would know the answer to such an abstract question about another make of car? and i've given you some good advice, take it or blow me.

 

hardly a strange question, there must be people on here that have enquired or had it done, as for the fact that this is a ford forum, whats your point? I have a love for fords, so am on here, like many others are, just because i no longer own a ford does not mean that i can't post on here asking a question about air con! I've spoken to you before on here and found you to be very knowledgeble, and seem to be a nice bloke, now whatever your problem is today regarding this post, don't take it out on me and be so flippin arsey about it! chill the fook out dude!

As for your advice, as you'll see above, I have thanked you for it, just didn't understand what the hostility was for.

I have never had an argument or harsh words with anyone on this site, and I'm not about to start with you.

 

thanks for the comments aaron. the original advice was not meant with any hostility, and now it's escalated to this. i apologise for being arsey.

but if you can't seem my point then let's just forget it.

 

I can see your point man, and am gratelful for ya advice, agreed tho, lets forget it!

 

Don't know anything about BMWs but the Sierra has a different bukhead when aircon is fitted from the factory - if the BMW is the same its probably more bother than its worth to strip the car to change the bulkhead. Aftermarket kits will work with whatever bulkhead the car came with, but I reckon it would cost £1500 upwards.

If aircon becomes that important, you'd probably do better to sell your car and buy one with the kit already in it.
